My ideas full.

Music video

One of my project ideas for ICT is to produce and maybe compose my own music video, i will take some clips from the internet and some i will produce by my self. This will challenge me because i havent really worked with a camera before so if im filming it will be a real challenge, also if i compose a music video i will have to come up with some music myself which will be quite a challenge. I’ve got many ideas which could be made in to songs, and the filming sets could be staged anywhere in hong kong.

Game

Another thing which i would really enjoy is to create a simple and fun 2D game, imagine super mario but with more action (guns, knifes etc) i have found a game engine, that costs about 50$ Hong kong dollars. which seems to be really good, the best thing is that you can produce this game later on and make a profit. This game engine is pretty simple, It has allready got a genre kit, the genre kit is a theme of Greenland so that includes landscape pictures sprites etc, however i dont want too do a game about Greenland so i will probably have to make my own sprites, or i could try to look up some other ones that i could use. I have also installed Adobe Photoshop to make my own Buttons, Icons, and the front cover of the game. I also have to make a game tutorial, instruction book and a help book. I am currently looking at other game guides, tutorials to get an understanding of what i am going to have to do. They all explain the basics of the game, and then they go in to more depth. Some guides are very complicated some are very simple, i havent found a single one that is balanced, so im planning mine to be both simple and advanced. The actual game will be Difficult, but not too difficult. I assume i must also create a rating for this game, if so i will try to contact a big rating company to rate it for me, since the actual game makers cant rate their own games.

Headphones

I’ve also been thinking about making a pair of headphones, my dad´s friend currently works with making headphones and designing them, so he will help me with the manufacturing process. I will make quite original ones, not too fancy. I’ve been looking at the internet for inspiriation and i’ve found many nice designs and shapes that i might consider adding to my headphones. These Headphones will be kind of original with an all black concept. I will try to make the headphones out of the best quality materials and the make them to provide the best sound quality. As i said before i have installed Adobe photoshop so i will most likely draw these headphones in Photoshop.

My first Entry

I have now gotten my self together to finally write a blog entry, i lost my 3 choices at first but today i finally found them on my hard drive.

Music video:
One of my project ideas is to produce and compose my own music video i am most likely to create my own song, since i do play guitar. The music video will be filmed in several places in Hong Kong.

Game:
I have found a 2D engine that runs well on mac, it is quite a simple and fun game engine no hard programming etc. It only costs 50$ US dollars so its not too expensive, and if i buy the engine i can make games that i will get credit and money for. It comes with a genre kit, which i will change since i don't want my game to consist of Snowmen. (the genre kit you get with the game engine is Greenland) So i will most likely make my own one, i have also bought Adobe Photoshop to create buttons, icons and other artwork. I will also make my own tutorial and help guide.

Headphones:
My dad's friend is in the headphone business, so he will help me understanding the manufacturing process and also the designing one, i want to make my headphones quite original but not too original, I've been on the internet looking on headphones for a while now and I have found many interesting ones that is very inspirational.
